    Back when I was a teenager, this list would probably have been all about the International Communist Conspiracy.  The top link would have been to an article on Communism, followed by a bunch of Communism and This, and Communism and Thats.  Communism and Atheism…Communism and Jews…Communism and Liberalism…Communism and Democrats…Communism and Hollywood…Communism and Hippies…Communism and Feminism…Communism and Negroes…<\/em>  In my lifetime the American far right has gone from looking for communists under the bed to sniffing the underwear of gay men.  That’s degeneracy for you. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
